    Yeah vendor reps are not permitted to talk about their competition here on the forums rules iirc. Sets the conversation into a toxic playground instead of the friendly competitive nature that I personally enjoy. That goes for any vendor, they are free to support their products but x is better than y is left for members to discuss.

    I enjoy SFF for my daily driver, depending on how much I am trying to pack into it, can be as fun as when I was modding my Alienware 17 R1. For benching it wouldnt make much sense, at all.

    Yeah it has to be able to read the sensors it wants or it turns off the system. Obviously Clevo cards have better chance of working but MSI is usually the next best option in terms of at least posting and letting you boot up. When another member on NBR (cant remember username) tried to get some newer cards working for the M4600 they were only able to get some cards working under Linux as Windows would crash or lock up. Same drill for a couple of the other Dell Precision systems, no idea if that will hold any water for the P180HM though. Worth a try

    I should have the 4980hq sitting around my house somewhere, worked in the M6800 but not the PC I originally wanted to work with (Alienware 17 R1)

    I dont use KVM's anymore, too limiting. Great for granular stuff if needed though. I use a multiviewer, basically taking multiple inputs and cropping into one display. https://www.amazon.com/XOLORspace-Multiviewer-Screen-Seamless-Switching/dp/B0862DS8J4/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_2?crid=23H1YD9EGA0IR&keywords=multiviewer+9+port&qid=1693322779&sprefix=multiviewer+9+port+%2Caps%2C120&sr=8-2-fkmr0&ufe=app_do%3Aamzn1.fos.c3015c4a-46bb-44b9-81a4-dc28e6d374b3 What I use to control all of them are USB synchronizers, kind of a flimsy product but it gets the job done. https://www.amazon.com/GUODDM-Ports-USB-Synchronizer-Synchronization/dp/B0BM7J5P96/ref=sr_1_20?crid=2HPHRQNC25HJF&keywords=usb+synchronizer&qid=1693323003&sprefix=usb+synchronizer%2Caps%2C101&sr=8-20&ufe=app_do%3Aamzn1.fos.006c50ae-5d4c-4777-9bc0-4513d670b6bc My home station right is a bit of a mess, mostly because I am running 2 desktops now, benchmarking one while I work on some certifications on the other until that is wrapped up. Finally can start doing some SLI/Xfire benchmarks when the winter time hits.

    This is how it was setup when I started working here, 2x16 KVM's, works fine. Problem is you can only view 2 systems at a time and if you lose signal or never had it when booting you had to cycle the system, reseat cables, try another cable as it doesnt return when re-plugging with the system live. This method allows me to use 9 systems per monitor, totaling 36 on this cart, with the synchronizer and QMK I can run all production at the same time. Instead of producing 2 at a time, I now run 36 in real time. Think CCTV monitors and how they crop a display, but for PC's. This mock up is to see if there is enough physical real estate to make sense of the approach. 4K HDTV is cheaper than 4 1080P monitors these days. basically you take the setup prior and add another "multiviewer" in front of it so that everything outputs to 1 single panel. If everything is wired up appropriately, I could scale up into hundreds of systems from one keyboard with no remote software, no network dependencies and even simplify processes with QMK. Im not doing photoshop or sending emails off these things, that would be hell lol, this is just provisioning, Autopilot, SCCM/MDT deployments things of that nature. So I just need to see enough to make sure I am making the right configurations for each client.

    I'll snap some pictures of my mockups for you guys in a bit lol

    Im working on converting all my work displays to 65" 4K HDTV's, its cheaper than replacing/adding monitors for my volume. Plus it also gives some eye candy for when they shop out the room to future clients. I would basically be using 4x 1080p multiviewers (splitting the physical screen to 9 systems) into 1 4K multiviewer (=36 systems). I also have devices that allow me to control all PC's at the same time via 1 keyboard. I really need to take a course or something on cable management though. Routing your cables neatly in a single pc is fine of course but when you have 4 cables per pc, thats 144 cables on a single "cart" or wireframe shelf. I even have QMK for semi-automating what I need for each of my projects. Looking forward to 4K :)

    Don't know that I can agree, without having seen the video. GN does like to make a few jokes at the other parties expense but most of the time it's those that refused to acknowledge the problem. I don't want for either group to be completely sanitized of humanity. That's how you get videos made by someone from HR.
  11. Reciever
    Thats fair, GN tends to do that sort of thing periodically. Dont know about the tone deaf portion since I didnt see it but the timing is definitely bad since it would be seen as an additional swipe at LTT (regardless if true or not). Its fine in my book to criticize, but if the party in question has accepted it, spent time on reflection, and is re-entering the market then you need to allow them to get up.
  12. Reciever
    Didnt watch it either, whats going on?
  13. Reciever
    Sounds like you are getting the Amazon treatment I usually get.

    Any further inquiries regarding price, please do so over PM. Thanks everyone!

    Here is a bit of a main preview on one of the games that I like to play from time to time showing FPS differences. I spent more time getting more benchmarks on Rise of the Tomb Raider since it showed a difference, but also has a benchmark built in. 2700x @ 4.0Ghz | DDR4 @ 3200Mhz 10850K @ 5.0Ghz | DDR4 @ 4400Mhz Both are set as follows: Max Settings AA Off DX12 Standard Hair 2560x1440

    I think thats fair.

    So uhh, EVGA has a 2080Ti for 350 in b-stock

    You will need to try setting a Global rule in Nvidia control panel to use the dGPU
  19. Reciever
    Even if I dont, I'll make it work out :D might forget about it by the time it arrives though

    https://www.ebay.com/itm/175781513938?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&fromMakeTrack=true Thinking about grabbing one of these for the one NVME drive I have, I was surprised to see that Der8uaer actually checked it out as well. Looks like fleabay wont let me buy it for some reason, ill try again tomorrow.
  21. Reciever
    Yeah unless you have eDP PEG will not play nice is my understanding. The viking will need SG mode
  22. Reciever
    Have you removed the gpu yet? It can only operate under SG mode or PEG if you have an eDP panel
